Cannot run DexktopX created sidebar gadgets

Just tried to create Vista Sidebar gadget with DektopX. Creation and export went fine, but then after loading gadget to Sidebar I get a message within gadget window stating that "DesktopX must be installed to use this gadget."... which obviously is installed. I tried to play with some gadgets created with DesktopX I found on Wincustomize - the same story. I'm using Vista x64 Ultimate. What's wrong?

What is the Version of DesktopX you run on? if it's 3.49 (beta) you can export as vista sidebar gadget but if you run the 3.2 you can't.
the 3.49 is available for objectdesktop subscribers as beta.

Look here

It is lates available on Stardoc Central - 3.49e(b).015. So I have no problem with exporting gadgets, but just cannot run them in sidebar

Having the same problem here. Since the update to 3.49, my sidebar weather gadget stopped working and I get "DesktopX must be installed to use this gadget". I'm running Vista home premium and I am a subscriber to Object Desktop, so all versions are full paid versions.

I checked few more gadget and some seems to work... I think those are created with DX Pro, so can be exported as stand alone oones. These that are created with non Pro version of DX are not working...
